An acid is a chemical substance that has a sour taste and is corrosive if concentrated. It has a pH value less than 7. It turns blue litmus paper (pH indicator) red. Citric acid is a common acid found in lemon.

Alkali and base are the same thing. An Alkali is a chemical substance that has a soapy feeling and a bitter taste. It is corrosive if concentrated. It has a pH value greater than 7. It turns red litmus paper blue. Alkalis are commonly found in shampoos. The burning in eyes when such products get into eyes is caused by alkalis. Sodium hydroxide is a common alkali.

Given that you started with 28.5 g of K3PO4, how many grams of KNO3 can be<br> produced?
Irina18 [472]

Mass of KNO₃ : = 40.643 g

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

Given

28.5 g of K₃PO₄

Required

Mass of KNO₃

Solution

Reaction(Balanced equation) :

2K₃PO₄ + 3 Ca(NO₃)₂ = Ca₃(PO₄)₂ + 6 KNO₃

mol K₃PO₄(MW=212,27 g/mol) :

= mass : MW

= 28.5 : 212,27 g/mol

= 0.134

Mol ratio of K₃PO₄ : KNO₃ = 2 : 6, so mol KNO₃ :

= 6/2 x mol K₃PO₄

= 6/2 x 0.134

= 0.402

Mass of KNO₃ :

= mol x MW KNO₃

= 0.402 x 101,1032 g/mol

= 40.643 g

10. Summarize the effect of hydrogen bonding on boiling point.
oksano4ka [1.4K]

Answer:

10. it increases the boiling point because it is a stone bond and will require much energy to break it.

11.So, to boil liquid water, all hydrogen bonds have to be broken and it requires a large amount of energy. This isn't the case in HF; all hydrogen bonds need not to be broken, and therefore a lesser amount of energy is required. So HF boils at a much lower temperature as compared to water even though F has high electronegativity but the force of attraction or the intermolecular is is weak
